It's called Forest Trail for a reason. Surrounding the prestigious Cold Springs Saddle & Tennis Club — and this residence — are national forest, hiking trails, a well-stocked trout stream and lake, plus the pristine horse pastures. Beyond the trees stands the crown jewel of the community — a home reimagined through a comprehensive, designer-led renovation. Light pours through fresh, open rooms dressed in curated, high-end finishes: wide-plank white oak floors, honed soapstone, crisp white shiplap, and beamed ceilings, all in a palette that feels warm, current, and quietly luxurious. Outside, an equally tasteful landscape plan — quintessentially "Highlands Style" — blends into the sloping terrain, which gives way to a rare, large flat backyard set just off the home's two expansive covered balconies. With generous living space that flows effortlessly from hearth to covered deck, this home lives as beautifully as it looks — across two full levels, inside and out. The main level is a true retreat: a stone fireplace, a chef's galley kitchen with custom banquette, dining for twelve if needed, an open family room, a double garage, a full covered deck, guest quarters, and a serene primary suite. The bright, airy lower level opens with a grand club room — big enough for a full media lounge and a pool table — that spills onto a large lower-level balcony and out to the backyard for a game of croquet, plus another large bedroom and a bonus flex room or easily transformed into an optional 4th bedroom. Furniture does not convey, however; it is negotiable. Walk to the canoe and kayak dock, fly fish from the island, keep your horses on-site in a private stable, and experience quietude like never before — all just ten minutes and under three miles from downtown Highlands.

There are mountain homes, and then there are mountain properties that offer the freedom to create a legacy. Set at the end of a quiet road on 33.35+/- unrestricted acres, this exceptional Highlands-area retreat combines breathtaking long-range mountain views, remarkable privacy, and endless possibilities in one of Western North Carolina's most sought-after locations. Surrounded on two sides by U.S. Forest Service land, the property enjoys a rare sense of permanence and seclusion. Rolling woodland, a private pond, natural clearings, and a trail that has already been opened across the larger portion of the acreage invite exploration while revealing the remarkable scale of the land. Several locations throughout the property offer the potential for additional homesites where selective tree limbing or clearing could further enhance the already impressive mountain vistas. At the heart of the property sits a quintessential log cabin that perfectly captures the timeless appeal of mountain living. Warm wood interiors, soaring vaulted ceilings, exposed beams, and expansive windows create an inviting atmosphere where natural light and panoramic views become part of the home's design. The dramatic great room serves as a gracious centerpiece for entertaining, equally suited for lively gatherings with friends or peaceful evenings beside the fire after a day spent exploring the mountains. The open kitchen blends beautifully into the living spaces with stainless steel appliances, generous workspace, and effortless flow to the expansive wraparound deck. Extending along three sides of the home, the outdoor living areas offer multiple places to relax, dine, and enjoy the ever-changing mountain landscape. One covered section, complete with a porch swing, provides an idyllic setting for morning coffee, afternoon thunderstorms, or colorful Blue Ridge sunsets. The thoughtfully designed floor plan offers three bedrooms and two full baths. Two guest bedrooms, a shared bath, and the laundry room are conveniently located on the main level, while the upper-level primary suite provides a peaceful retreat featuring a newly renovated shower, walk-in closet, abundant attic storage, and a loft workspace overlooking the great room below. The walkout basement adds tremendous flexibility for future expansion. A spacious unfinished area with sliding glass doors opening to the covered patio offers outstanding potential for additional living or recreation space, while a separate workshop with oversized barn-style doors easily accommodates equipment, tools, hobbies, or creative pursuits. With no HOA and no restrictions, this property offers exceptional versatility. Whether envisioning a private family compound, additional residences, a recreational retreat, hiking and camping, hunting, forestry, or simply preserving the land as your own mountain sanctuary, the opportunities are as expansive as the acreage itself. Despite its remarkable privacy, the property is only approximately 15 minutes from Highlands and 30 minutes from Cashiers, placing award-winning dining, boutique shopping, art galleries, live music, seasonal festivals, hiking trails, waterfalls, and countless outdoor adventures comfortably within reach. Starlink service has also performed well for the current owner, offering reliable connectivity while enjoying the peace and beauty of this extraordinary setting.

Tucked behind the gates of Wildcat Cliffs Country Club, this fully furnished 4-bedroom, 4-bath, 2-half-bath Craftsman retreat has been completely renovated and professionally redesigned, blending timeless craftsmanship with refined mountain luxury. Ralph Lauren-inspired interiors feel sophisticated yet warm, perfectly suited to life in Highlands. Understated from the road, the home unfolds into generous living spaces designed for family and friends. The great room features vaulted ceilings, a dramatic stone fireplace, custom wainscoting and walls of glass framing lake and long-range mountain views. A hidden equipment room keeps technology discreetly out of sight. The chef's kitchen offers a 60-inch Wolf range, Bosch dishwasher, custom cabinetry and abundant gathering space. A dedicated bar reminiscent of "Cheers" flows into the open dining room and expansive covered terrace. With a masonry fireplace, outdoor television, infrared heaters and views over lush perennial gardens, this is true four-season outdoor living. Wrapped in glass, the main-level primary suite features spectacular views, separate his-and-her closets and a spa-inspired bath with a soaking tub overlooking the gardens and mountains. A second main-level en-suite evokes the timeless comfort of a classic mountain retreat. The lower level includes a media room with built-in Murphy beds, wine room and a private fitness room. Beyond the interiors, an extraordinary adventure awaits. Pass Mo, the enormous bronze moose, and descend into a private enchanted forest that must be experienced to appreciate its magic. Moss-covered paths with cable railings lead down locust-and-stone steps, past a massive boulder where spring water trickles through unusual moss formations, then by a hidden cave. Follow the sound of moving water to a mountain waterfall meandering through the stones—a setting reminiscent of a national park, yet entirely your own. Hike from home and explore a trail network extended by neighboring properties. An oversized two-bay golf-cart garage provides room for multiple carts, clubs and gear, with the clubhouse just a short ride away. Wildcat Cliffs offers championship golf, croquet, pickleball, fitness center with indoor pool, fishing ponds and walking trails. This is more than a renovated home; it is a thoughtfully curated Highlands retreat unlike any other.
